If you pick up this month's issue of Nature's Best magazine you will see that our own Todd Mintz is among the highly honored winners of this year's photo contest. His image will also be displayed in an exhibit at the Smithsonian, WTG Todd!

I very honoUred to hear that one of my photos inspired another photographer. Thankyou very much for that comment. I hope you have as great a trip as I did.

I was fortunate to also have dove with Dr. Erdmann who was just in the press for the recent finds in that general area. He was a huge source of information and a good guy to have a few drinks with at the end of the day. (He married a Canadian so he has to be alright wouldn't you say Mike? )

I prefer not to post the image up right now as it was already entered in a couple of other contests. : If you want to see it you can go to my website under the gallery for contests and recognition. I have it posted there.
